Welch family birthday cake

      We had a joint birthday party for our parents and I wanted to make a big cake for the occasion.  I decided to do a double tiered cake, but also have homemade fondant on top.  Everything about this cake was a new experience.....First time doing homemade fondant, double tiered cake, coloring fondant, and stars sticking out of cake.  Lets, just say I learned a lot.  Brown fondant is really hard to color and I learned this later on, but it is easier to color the fondant before you add the powdered sugar.  You don't want to handle fondant too much, it is very similar to pie crust, in that if you handle it too much it falls apart.(Hence a spot where there was a little hole)  Anyways, I loved the colors brown and blue and I loved the actual cake and filling inside.  I decided to do a chocolate cake with a honey-chocolate mousse filling......YUMMY!
